On 2027, the inability to procreate threatens the permanence of humanity on the world. In this context, a bureaucrat will be “recruited” by a terrorist organization to help a girl who turns out to be pregnant. With an overwhelming and demi-documentary staging, whose highlight is Emmanuel Lubezki’s cinematography and the use of long takes, Children of Men is set in a dystopian and desolate future where a series of moral and philosophical issues are at stakes.
